"wo have convinced ourselves that by
telling what we know to be true, we have
produced at last a permanent coavietlom in
the public mind. Seven years ago we
stated what the national disease of this
country was, and that 1T was rapidly in
eredsing. Three years ago we stated that q
marked check had been given 1t.
"The statistics of one of the largest life
insurance companies of this country shows
that in 1888 and 1884, the mortality from
kidney disorders did not increase over the
previous years L: other companies stated the
same thing. 1t is not presumptuous for us
TO claim credit for checking these ravages.
"Seven years ago we stated that the con-
dltion of the kidneys was the key to the
condition of health: within the past five
years all careful lJe insurance companies
have conceded the truth of this statement
for, Whereas ten years ago, chemical anal
ysis to determine the condition of the kid
neys was not required, to-day millions Of
dollars in risks are refused, because chemical
examination discovers unStspected diseases
of the kidneys.
"Seven years ago we stated that the raw
ages of Bright's Disease were Insignificant
compared with other runsuspected disorders
of the kidneys of many misleading pamss; !;
that ninety-three per cent. of human all
ments are attributable to deranged kid
neys, which fills the blood with uric acid,
or kidney poison, which causes these many
fatal diseases.
"The uric acid, or kidney poison, is the
real cause of the majority of cases of paral-
ysis, apopleXy, heart disease, convulsions,
pneumonia, consumption, and insanity;
over half the victims of consumption are
first tho victims of diseased kidneys.
"When the recent death of an honored
ex-offcial of the United States was an
nounced, his physician said that although
he was suffering from Bright's Disease,
that was not The cause of death. He was not
crank enough to admit that the apopleXy
which overlook him in his bed was the
fatal effect of the kidney poison in the
blood, which had eaten away the substance
of the arteries and brain; nor was Logan's
physician honest enough to state that his
fatal rheumatism was caused by kidney
acid in the blood.
'lf the doctors would state in official re-
ports the original cause of death, the peo-
pie of this country would be alarmed, yea,
nearly panic stricken, at the fearful mortali-
ty from kidney disorders

THE STATE RAILROAD COMMISSION.


TarstOw.
Editors Rural TcrmCntcr:
The appointment of Col. Aldace Fl.
Walker on the interstate railroad commits
sion should be source of qualification to
every one. 1t is guarantee that, so far
as his influence goes, questions that come
before the commission will be carefully
considered. with fairness to corporations
and people He early identified himself
with this movement, on the part of the
State, and his advocacy of the measure in
the Senate of 1882 had very much to do
with the success Of Il commission later on
Those who opposed the formation of a
commission, railroad men and railroad
papers, sneered ut Col. Walkers efforts as
cranky" hoping in this way to kill the
measure and weaken the influence of the
man. On one occasion when he appeared
before the railroad committee, at the last
session of the legislature, to explain and
defend the PROV isions of his bill as intro
duced by General Ripley of Mendon,
prominent railroad officials present en-
pressed immense surprise at certain fea-
lures of the bill, affecting to regard them
as revolutionary, If not incendiary. Col
onel Walker met them in spirit of fair
ness and concession on some mooted points
but with manifest determination to
maintain the principle of State supervis-
ion, nevertheless.
Governor BarStOw, in his first message
to the legislature, opened the discussion of
a railroad commission, and the people of
this State will not soon forget the impor-
tant service rendered them thus early in
the history of the measure. OF course
Governor Barstow drew upon himself the
lightning of corporations, and he no doubt
expected it but it is the advocacy of
measures that produces 1esults-they do
not grow spontaneously, like plants, out
of the ground. He saw that, the theory
being right, the practice could not go very
far wrong, if properly applied. He assum
ed that the people would in the end com
prehend the Importance of the issue. This
assumption was correct, and Governor
Barstow has escaped the lightning, and
stands vastly higher to-day in the est
nation of the people of Vermont for hay
ing dared its stroke.
The work is not yet completed. The
Interstate commission may lessen the
labors and duties of a State commission,
but questions will arise that properly come
before State boards alone. Differences be
tween shippers and carriers, railroad eros
sings, private and public, DETERMINATIONS
-fancied or real-these and a multitude
of things will call for adjustment. 1t is
expected that the commission will meet
all these questions fairly and with dignity.
The flippaucy that characterized an early
report OF an accident, between Burlington
and Winooski, wherein the public was in
formed that it was Dangerous to walk on
the railroad track" can be dispensed with.
business Is what the people want, and
they will have it, The legislature did not
perpetrate IA joke when it passed the
railroad commission bill. 1t should be
their study and aim to prevent accidents,
and not merely report upon them after
some dreadful calamity. The people expect
tiers, not be pushed. FAIRFAX
